If you see those emails floating around claiming Epstein is Satoshi, just ignore them. They’re fake. Check out the DOJ’s site; legit mentions of Satoshi only started in 2011. No emails about him or bitcoin from 2008.

Who even believed that nonsense lol? It’s wild.
Yeah some folks are buying into the Epstein claims just because the files are out there. Sure, the files might have some truth, but let’s be real Satoshi wouldn’t waste his time with public drama. His focus is on his own work.
So that document is fake, right? Some people jumped on the Epstein-BTC link way too quickly. Like, is this really where we’re at? People rush to get clicks over actual facts nowadays.

For real, fake news travels faster than anything. It’s all about copy-pasting with no fact-checking. And media loves using Epstein to smear bitcoin. Surprised at the amount of attention they’re getting, though.

Right? Anything linking Epstein to bitcoin is mostly nonsense. Just because he mentioned bitcoin to some devs doesn’t mean he’s behind it. It’s just a bad attempt to twist the narrative.
I saw so many emails shared online claiming Epstein is Satoshi. 99% are just clickbait with titles like "Epstein is Satoshi?" Just spreading panic and FUD. Let’s not feed into that, people.
Lol, and the comparisons to statues that might represent Satoshi? Total cringe. Not everything needs to be a conspiracy.

The Epstein files mention tons of names, but just because bitcoin’s mentioned doesn’t mean he created it. Most of the hype on social media is just false info. People sharing random pics with no connection to reality.
Honestly, I haven’t seen any verified articles linking Epstein to the bitcoin structure. Nothing sticks when you look close enough. Most claims just get debunked.
Yeah, so many edited emails floating around and you got these creators acting like it’s all a conspiracy. Meanwhile, the panic's real. People are dumping their bitcoins because of this junk.

Ugh, obviously Epstein wasn’t Satoshi. But then again, some say he had something to do with Blockstream? They even think he influenced the developers to cripple BTC’s potential. What a leap.
Yeah, I can’t even. Epstein controlling developers? That sounds like a wild fantasy. If he could control that, he’d have total power over bitcoin, which just isn’t true.

Even if the Epstein files were legit, none have been proven true. Lots are just getting duped because they trust one source too much without doing any actual research.

Totally agree. You could argue anything without proof like the tooth fairy being real. Jumping from some business ties to controlling everything is a stretch.
